Hello, I recently discovered this white stuff growing. It slowly takes over the rocks and creates a little root network. Then sometimes these little white fuzzy trumpets grow out of it, but it only does that next to coral. I tried my best to take pics, it's basically all over the rocks shown, thx guys.

Yeah white light picture would help the more knowledgeable people help you Id it.
Can't really see nothing in that blue blurry light sorry.
See couple little green polyps and some whiteish blue fuzzy stuff but guessing no blue actually in it .
Look up colonial hydroids the little tiny white ones,best guess can give you going just from your description
